<p>Thank you so much for your quick resplies, it is much
appreciated. Im sorry for my late response, but I havent been able
to check the thread nor did I except such quick response!</p>
<p>I just managed to build a new version of Slurm version 19.05 with
PMIX v3.1. It seems to work without error when starting a
MPI-program with the command srun.</p>
<p>I do though have some additional questions.<br>
</p>
<ol>
<li>Prior to the installation of Slurm version 19.05 I tried to
remove the former installation of Slurm via the package tool in
Ubuntu (apt), but all of the files or dependencies have not been
removed.</li>
<ol>
<li>I cannot start the services (slurmctld and slurmd) via
systemctl. The error stated by systemctl is <br>
</li>
<li>For slurmd-service:<br>
"slurmd.service: Failed with result 'protocol<br>
Failed to start LSB: slurm daemon management"</li>
<li>For slurmctld.service:<br>
"systemd[1]: Starting LSB: slurm daemon management...<br>
slurmctld[4531]: Not starting slurmctld<br>
slurmctld[4531]: slurm.conf was not found in /etc/slurm-llnl<br>
lurmctld[4531]: Please follow the instructions in
/usr/share/doc/slurmctld/README.Debian<br>
systemd[1]: slurmctld.service: Can't open PID file
/var/run/slurm-llnl/slurmctld.pid (yet?) after start: No such
file or directo<br>
systemd[1]: slurmctld.service: Failed with result 'protocol'.<br>
systemd[1]: Failed to start LSB: slurm daemon management."</li>
<li>So why is the folder /var/run/slurm-llnl/ searched? I must
have missed out on changing the <i><sysconfdir></i>
during configuration.</li>
<li>However I manage to start both of the services manually from
the build dir (<buidlDir>/src/slurmd/slurmd/ and
<buildDir>/src/slurmctld/ respectively)</li>
</ol>
</ol>
<p>@John Hearns:
I am not currently running any cluster or HPC software. I am
testing the Slurm installation on a single node (a notebook for
the moment). I dont plan on installing any additional software as
of now, but I am interested in knowing what works and what works
even better :)</p>
<p>Best regards</p>

<div>You should probably get the latest stable SLURM
version from <a rel="nofollow" shape="rect"
target="_blank" href="http://www.schedmd.com"
moz-do-not-send="true">www.schedmd.com</a> and use
the build/install instructions found there. Note
that you should check for WARNING messages in the
config.log produced by SLURM's configure, as they're
the best place to find you've missing packages that
may be useful.</div>
<div><br clear="none">
</div>
<div>When configuring OpenMPI, you'll want to use
"--with-pmi=/usr/local" if you build SLURM and
install it into /usr/local. You'll probably also
want "--enable-mpi-cxx".</div>

<p>Dear all,</p>
<p><br clear="none">
</p>
<p>I have been following this mailinglist for
some time, and as a complete newbie using
Slurm I have learned some lessons from you.</p>
<p>I have an issue with building and configuring
Slurm to use OpenMPI.</p>
<p>When running srun for some task I get the
error stating that Slurm has not been built or
configured to use MPI and I am advised to
rebuild it accordingly.<br clear="none">
</p>
<p>i have taken the following steps in order to
configure and build Slurm with OpenMPI (or
PMI2, it really doesnt matter for me right
now, I just want to have the know how on this
such configuration should be made).</p>
<ol style="list-style-position:
inside;list-style-position: inside">
<li>Download source-code via "apt-get source
slurm-llnl" (current version for Ubuntu
18.10 is 17.11.9)</li>
<li>Extracted the source code from the
slurm-llnl_17.11.9-1.dsc"</li>
<li>cd to source dir</li>
<ol style="list-style-position:
inside;list-style-position: inside">
<li>First I ran the following steps:</li>
<ol style="list-style-position:
inside;list-style-position: inside">
<li>"./configure --with-pmi"</li>
<li>"debuild -i -us -uc -b" -> Fails.</li>
</ol>
<li>I then ran the following steps (noting
that the "debuild-command" overwrites some
configuration, thus I added "--with-pmi"
for that case):</li>
<ol style="list-style-position:
inside;list-style-position: inside">
<li>debuild -i -us -uc -b" -> Fails</li>
</ol>
</ol>
</ol>
<p><br clear="none">
</p>
<p>I followed the same procedure when
configuring OpenMPI to be built with Slurm,
which worked after some back and forth with
clean commands.</p>
<p><br clear="none">
</p>
<p>Any suggestions as to why this does not work?</p>
<p>I must be missing out on something very
basic, because Slurm must surely be used with
Ubuntu and OpenMPI .<br clear="none">
